Theres gotta be another planet out there other than Mars that can support life.

im sure we are not the only planet that is capable of supporting life. maybe one day in the future we will develop some type of warp drive system that will let us travel outside of our solar system to find strange new worlds, to seek out new life and civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before.

Two reasons: One by grace and luck our planet is the only one located in a "somewhat" peaceful area. Venus for example is way too close to the sun and moons of Jupiter are too far. Life requires energy and stability of environment to thrive. Mars is also located in a mildly peaceful area but it lacks one thing that the earth has to sustain itself as a life planet and that is a magnetic field. Evidence shows that mars may have at one point had a magnetic field but by some event in time lost it. On line you can read about Mar's once existent magnetic field. One theory proposes that mars lost the magnetic field when its nuclear core ran out of fission fuel thousands of years ago and then solidified allowing only a weak residual field. Scientist believe that in order for a planet to have a strong magnetic field the core needs to be liquid. Life requires a strong magnetic field to deflect the radiation from the sun. Solar radiation can scramble and destroy genetic sequences thus making life impossible.

I know what you you are saying. It's looks like we will be stuck living on this one. Even if one could be found that is tame enough for us to live on they are all too far away for us to ever go there. The laws of physics cannot be overturned. Not today and not a thousand years in the future. No matter how advanced mankind may become interstellar space travel will never be possible. Again I believe we're on this one for the long haul. The best we can expect to be able to do is we could construct a limited microcosm of Earth on the Moon or Mars or some of the other moons in our solar system.

I can't answer the question, because its prefaced with a false statement. We are not the only planet.
Not being fair? That's your ego reflecting your belief. Not how things really are.
As far as every planet out there has a problem in it? Do you mean our known Universe or probable civilizations on other worlds that have come and gone?
However, I can attempt to answer who you are based upon what you've written.
Its called Neurolinguistic programming or NLP.
Here is what you are like to a degree... You see your social life as a series of friends who present obstacles toward you.
For example, you know people who have relationship issues with their parents or friends.
You also have some unfinished tasks.
You've had conversations with some authority figures on how to remedy certain situations, but you didn't follow through with most of it.
That's it for now.
When you want to, message me to let me know what percentage was accurate about you?

There's numerous other planets out there, all different types...Rock, gaseous (like Jupiter, Saturn, etc.), ice, etc. And as far as I know, poor Earth is the only one with problems on it...getting slowly destroyed by some inhabitants that I don't think I have to name.
P.S. It hasn't been proven that Mars can support life. Only a slight possibility there may be or have been something microscopic there.

Sure, probably hundreds of thousands of planets can support life (and probably some do already). We just haven't found them yet.
And a problem to us is likely not a problem to the lifeforms on those worlds.
Who says that below-zero temperatures and methane lakes are a problem - they wouldn't be if we evolved in that type of environment.
So problems are only from our perspective - there is no law that says planets must be able to support humans.

Not true, Its just the chances of a "good" planet are so astrnamically low that There's probably only a few billion cabable of supprting life in the universe, mabye 400 billion or something

that was a very vague statement. i am assuming u mean there are problems with other planets that support "life". if we are to find a planet that supports life i think it will be a different kind of life.

fair? who says anything is fair?
we are certainly NOT the only planet. there are 8 more (7 if you want Pluto mad at you) right here in this Solar System.

Our planet has many problems including this one "If God made mankind in his own image explain Courtney Love and George Bush".
